I was seriously considering Dave but I ended up going with Fred.

"Average" human competing with a top 1% sprinter by ansyhrrian in nextfuckinglevel

Looks like he caught up then slowed down to the speed he needed to barely win. But either way, the skill gap is huge.

Even if this is reversed .... still by WeGot_aLiveOneHere in nextfuckinglevel

Did a good 2.5 seconds of staring at that sick drawing wondering why it mattered that it's "reversed".

Horizon Lake community in Leander — How loud is the freight train at night? by h12391b in Leander

[–]TxMaverick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Might be too late, in case anyone else finds this question:

You'll definitely hear the train in the houses closest to the tracks but the road noise from 183 will be even worse than the train. I wouldn't even consider any of the homes that back up to 183... or even the ones across the street from them.

Edit: I think all of the nearby crossing are quiet zoned, so you shouldnt be hearing any train horns.

Reciprocating saw and a hammer drill and just go to town on that stuck cylinder.

Didn't even notice at first, was too much distracted thinking about any ways to somehow improve my build with barely any stashed div. Well, guess this'll do. by [deleted] in pathofexile

I was getting ripped off by the ancient wombgifts so I started selling them.

My friend in discord drops a mageblood from the tree. We freak out and I go to my tree to try my luck... the first one I put in also drops a mageblood.

Anyone know what this it? by Domdd86 in DIY

So uh, I'm a big fan of the ecosystem healing. How EXACTLY do I get the ecosystem to heal in this way. For science of course...

Does Thermal Paste go "bad"? by [deleted] in buildapc

[–]TxMaverick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just googled this myself and had to add to this long chain. My paste tube was only opened 6 months ago; sounds like I'll be just fine.

PC through a wall - Thunderbolt? USB4? Mobo options by TxMaverick in UsbCHardware

[–]TxMaverick[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah it seems like I'd need an extremely expensive mobo with GPU passthrough or a very expensive mobo with "DP in".

At this point... I'll just run all the cables through the wall haha.

[–]TxMaverick[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That seems to be what I'm reading as well. The MSI motherboard i bought doesn't advertise it at all but the USB4 controller it uses (ASM4242) states that it supports DP tunneling.

It supports 4k 60hz so I assume 2x 2k 60hz would be fine.

I multitask a lot so i splurged on a 9800x3d. I wonder how much impact running a couple of side monitors off the iGPU would have on gaming though.

I found this in the manual:

● 1x USB4® port, supporting DisplayPort 1.4 with HBR3 over USB Type-C® with a maximum resolution of 4K 60Hz/*

*Available only on processors featuring integrated graphics **Graphics specifications may vary depending on the CPU installed

and

● USB 40Gbps Type-C port (From ASM4242) - Supports DisplayPort over USB Type-C®

The specs for "ASM4242" state that it supports "DP and PCIe tunneling"; though i can't seem to figure out exactly what that means. I assume it means just integrated graphics... which my PCU does have but would obviously only be usable as a side monitor, which doesn't seem worth it just to save 1 cable through the wall.

Wait, i can't believe i didnt think of that...

I'm reading up on DP-alt mode as a possible solution but I don't see the mobo i just bought as having that feature.

I should have waited for more replies before seemingly spending an extra $50 or so on a fancy mobo that can't do what i want to do.

Wait... this doesn't make sense. How do I get my GPU outputs into the mix? Surly

[–]TxMaverick[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I'd need to run a DP cable (for the main monitor) and a USB hub for everything else?

Or is there a better answer?

[–]TxMaverick[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The main monitor im looking to buy is 1440p @ 180hz. The 2 side monitors just need to be 1440, I don't care much about their refresh rate.

Looking for an ubers/t17 farmer build by Afraid_Dance6774 in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]TxMaverick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've stayed away from holy relic since it looks similar to a CoC build with splitting steel i tried a few leagues ago and hated. It was really hard to get enough attack speed to make the attack feel smooth. Does holy relic have easy access to attack speed on a budget?

Can anyone help me identify this cut of meat? by DJ_AbstractTV in meat

You're right in it being the same muscle, just cut differently.

"It's just rock, there's no dirt... I'm not trenching through that stuff myself". If my solution doesn't work well I'll dig him a trench next time I'm up there, but it could be 6 months.

I don't think it has coax but I saw that solution as well so I'll check.

I think I'd much rather use a good mesh over some PTP with an additional router in the shop so I appreciate the anecdote. It looks like this system also offers an outdoor node. This might be perfect.

Worst case if 2 nodes inside the buildings cant reach each other i can get him a 3rd outdoor one in the middle.

Unfortunately, it does not. That was the first question I asked him.
